TPI-PRO/DVI (Total Presentation Interface)
Upgrading Firmware
Overview
The process of updating firmware requires a communicating NetLinx Master.
The steps for updating firmware to a TPI-PRO/DVI are virtually identical to those necessary for updating .KIT
files to a NetLinx Master, except that the target device is a "panel" instead of a Master. Refer to either your
Master’s literature or NetLinx Studio online help for those instructions.
Use the
Firmware Transfers
utility in NetLinx Studio to transfer firmware upgrades to the TPI-PRO/DVI. In
NetLinx Studio, select
Tools > Firmware Upgrades > Send To NetLinx Device
to access the
Send To
NetLinx Device
dialog shown in FIG. 81:
Before beginning the firmware upgrade process:
Setup and configure your NetLinx Master. Refer to your particular NetLinx Master instruction
manual for detailed setup procedures.
Select the correct resolution, touch drivers, and calibrate the TPI-PRO/DVI (see the
Configure your TPI-PRO/DVI for direct communication (see the
section on page 44 for details regarding Ethernet communication).
Verify that the TPI-PRO/DVI is powered and connected to the NetLinx Master via Ethernet.

A TPI-PRO/DVI which is not using a valid username and password will not be able to
communicate with a secured Master.
If you are updating the firmware on a TPI-PRO/DVI which is not using a username or
password field, you must first remove the Master Security feature to establish an
unsecured connection.
If you are downgrading the firmware to version 2.5.10 or earlier and you are using the
1280x800@60Hz resolution, change the panel page resolution to a different setting
since this resolution does not exist in earlier firmware versions.
